The Effectiveness of Organisational Climate on Job Involvement

Abstract

Every organization operates in terms of a set of policies and norms, which are sometimes clearly laid down, while at other times, are in the form of traditions and conventions. Thus, an internal environment is created, consisting of a set of organizational characteristics, which can be induced in the way an organization deals with its members. As such, Organizations Climate (OC) may be defined as the human environment within an organization was an employee does their work. It is the shared perception of employees who work and live in the organization. Organizational climate is the root cause for the success or failure of every organization. It is the resultant effect of an interaction of a number of internal variables like structure, system, culture, leaders’ behavior, working conditions and psychological needs of employees with one another. Organizational climate can have a major influence on motivation, productivity and job satisfaction. Climate determines the action and it creates little expectancy as to consequences. This article traces the relationship between OC and the other organizational variables, especially job involvement, which ultimately determines the performance of the employees.
